“Ken Emerick, chairman of NBAA board of directors, caught me at the airport, on my way to Saudi Arabia to meet with King Abdullah, to tell me I had been selected to receive the NBAA Award for Meritorious Service to Aviation,” Gulfstream president emeritus Bryan Moss told NBAA Convention News. “The award was a complete and total surprise,” said Moss, who was named president emeritus in April. He added that looking back at the recipients over the years–Arthur Godfrey, Charles Lindbergh and Igor Sikorsky, to name a few–“I don’t put myself in that category.” He said, “It’s a big deal and I am humble and proud.”
The Gulfstream leadership team nominated Moss for the award, saying, “His passion for business jets, his singular commitment to the success of his company and his unending spirit and enthusiasm have made Bryan Moss an inspiration to those who work with him.” Pleased that it was his own leadership team that had recommended him for NBAA’s most prestigious award, Moss said, “They are a great group.”
